Thanks, Sue. Heís super gentle. He knows not to touch the anemone with the tweezers and is very careful. He loves feeding the animals. There were about three minutes in the middle of all this in which he was feeding the fish and some of the other corals but I didnít have the camera on during most of it.

Heís definitely my big little helper. He helped me measure and cut up all the lumber today for a stand for the new reef tank Iím gonna try putting up this week.

He's actually the reason I got into the hobby. He was obsessed with fish when he was a baby and toddler. So much so that we got a year-round pass to our city's aquarium and it was one of his favorite places. I kid you not, his first word was "ish" (took him a little while to work in the "f" sound). He picked out a betta for his 2nd birthday and that was the beginning of MY obsession haha

Yeah it's fun to watch. Sometimes the anemone will stretch upwards and look kind of like a tall mushroom. Other times it will deflate itself and force out waste from its mouth (they don't have butts so "poop" exits the same way it comes in). I never really know what to expect when I check in on it each day.

When I go fishing I just throw sharp rocks in the water and wait for the dead fish to float to the top... KingfisherEverything happens for a reason. Sometimes that reason is you are stupid and make bad decisions. I think my fish is adjusting well to the four gallon, He's laying on his side attempting to go to sleep on the bottom of the gravel.
Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. Dear naps, sorry I hated you so much when I was a child... Love me
